Error description
IBM Developer for z Systems - IDz - v14.2.3 GDG Limit shows wrong number when it's greater than 9 in encoding IBM-930 and IBM-1390. Steps to reproduce: - Define a GDG base with Limit greater than 9. - Connect a Remote Systems connection with the host code page of the MVS Files subsystem set to IBM-930 (or IBM-1390). - Browse and select the GDG base. In the dataset Properties view, its Limit is shown with incorrect number of 0.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: 01.All zExpl and IDz users with zExplorer * * host with MVS Subsystem's host encoding * * IBM-930 and IBM-1390. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.In IDz 14.1, LIMIT values of GDG * * that are greater than 9 are shown * * with the wrong value of 0 in * * IBM-930 and IBM-1390 encodings. * **************************************************************** 01.RSE backend does not return correctly the LIMIT attribute of the GDG when reading from z/OS. It is using lowercase hex character for the values, which are not supported by IBM-930 itself and IBM-1390 TSO client. Front end client has the default 0 in such case.
Problem conclusion
01.When reading from z/OS, use upper case hex character to represent LIMIT attribute of the GDG. Similar limitation has not been found for upper case letter with encodings.
